the chart linked above go to damage page and look,

240b is better then the 249, and the M60E is weaker then the 240b

up close the 249 and 240b do more damage then the 60 do to faster fire rate,

mid range M60 kills more often my guess is the M60 is slightly more accurate and more bullets find the target. vs the previous 2, but it does explain why i die vs lower ranked LMGs in extreme CQB its simply more bullets = death.

M60 is also my favorite weapon so far, i use the foregrip for moving, but yea 10 kills in a row on 1 flag due to the foregrip giving me superior mobility was awesome ufgy was there on that map as well. felt really good after clearing that flag. to bad are team were morons and after i died they didnt even bother to cap the flag lolz worst part was it was the first base from are main spawn and they still didnt cap it.

They're not over powered. Those 14 people need to learn to stop "camping". Lessons will be learned eventually, until then, M0AR M0RTARS!

also i have to laugh at how unstable servers still are.

refreshing a server that black haru is on

Ping is jumping from 33ms - 220ms thats a huge variation. Dice needs to crack down on this before 64man servers become truly playable. not surprisingly 32 man servers tend to be if i use 40ms as the base line tend to go from 40-80 48 man tends to be 40-120 but 64 man is 40-250 on average

Server Ping
Player Count----Base Value--------Max Value
32 man ---------40ms-------------80ms
48 man----------40ms-------------120ms
64 man----------40ms-------------250ms

TPU server when Empty based in Chicago
0 man-----------49ms-------------55ms

note these are rounded numbers and taken from servers in the chicago area, Haru's server is a bit better then average. so its most likely closer to my location still rather interesting.

min value for chicago servers for me seems to be 30ms avg is around 40 max around 50. on the low end, max values tend to vary around 20 below to 20 above the max value i selected but its a decent base value to see that DICE's net code was ready for prime time on 64 man servers. Kinda goes to show they did kinda bite the console bullet to an extent during development, as lower player counts seriously improve playability and server stability.

Me, no V-sync. I am working to see if I can figure out which card causes the problems, and I'm gonna RMA it.

I dont think it card related more to do with the game.

you must be right! i mean, considering how well you know his hardware compared to him, and the fact that EVERYONE is having problems with vsync...

/sarcasm

god i have a story to tell you

SO i built this computer for my Friends mom's dad and hes like 70 ors something like that and does photography and has no idea how to work a comptuero ther then photoshop!:banghead:

And so a few months ago he emailed me and saied there was pixelating lines and stuff all over the screen. He said he sent the monitor in under warrenty and got it back with no issues reported from samsung. So then i got him a new GPU. That GPU didnt want to boot so then i thought it was a power issue that it didnt want to boot. So got him a Antec NEO Eco 620w PSU and the HD6850 i got him still didnt boot so then i took this HD5770 i had sitting at my house from a previous rig i did and upgraded(upgraded from the hd5770) and put it in and it worked. Perfectly with the monitor and everything i had here at home. He took the system back. and lines showed up on his monitor again. It has to be the monitor, right, so he to his system and monitor to best buy. every monitor on display worked with his system, but his. hahah! SO IT WAS THE MONITOR!

Yea He hasn't had many problems but when he does, they are BIG ones! It was working fine and he installed something then it wouldnt boot anymore. I had to take it and do a full format and reinstall of windows. He gets it home and attempts to install his wireless USB Dongle and now it WONT BOOT!! WTF

also dave no point in RMAing for the green flicker,

its a Game Engine bug,

its along the same lines as the black flicker seen with BC2 its an inherent issue with Frostbite engine,

Don;t care. If one card does it on it's own, and the other does not, the card with the beahvior gets RMA'd. There's ZERO reason for one card to have it, and the other not to.


I thought the same..same as black flicker in BC2...but again, I do not care. Obviously, if both cards do it, I'm SOL. :laugh:

I don't know but i dropped my memory overclock on my GPU and havent gotten green flashes since
 
I already mentioned that memory speed plays a role. Unfortunately for me, my cards are at stock, not even shader unlocked.;) Hence my wanting to RMA.

Chances are, if I RMA, I will not get cards that unlock, so of course, RMA is the last thing I really WANT, but I see no other choice.

you sure its not drivers?
 
Could be, don't care. The card maker can take that up with AMD, if they are willing to RMA.

There are several caveats to RMA'ing cards..my XFX, if it's the one..XFX and I are pretty familiar with each other, seeing how I went through 9 5870's from them. Sapphire card, RMA's are dealt with the local retailer, so they'll test teh card. Heck, with the Sapphire, I can jsut go into the store, and walk out with another, as i paid for that service already.


the key indicator it's a real issue is if one card does it, but the other does not, like I said. Driver should NEVER cause issues on one card, and not the other.
 
I never saw these green lines tho I don't have a very high gpu mem oc.
 
So, is the game coming to Steam or not ? I'de love to join in the gig, but damned Origin is blocked in ma country :shadedshu
 
tHAT SUCKS SHIHABYBYOO. Try 'unlocked' versions maybe?

Graphics: is it only me or is this the first game that displays cables, like power or phone cables, in the aire, properly? Without jaggies, etc!

Another story: as told elsewhere, my Media Center is black, have to run the prelease beta drivers from Nv. So far so good, no issues. But after returning to that driver, Afterburner got paranoid or something and...

I was gaming, noticed low fps', checked and WTF! I was gaming at 400 Mhz GPU!!!! (from 800) hahahaha
Still playable, but.. not really... Had to fix it by disabling Afterburner... But the fact that I was able to just launch and play this beast at 1/2 graphic speed talks volumes about this Asrock/Intel2500K/GF470/8 GB RAM setup :)
 
I have my i7 920 OCed to 4ghz with a HD5850 1GB @ 1000core 1200mem, I never drop below 45FPS with All High Settings, 2x MSAA, 16X AF, HBAO ON

They are blocking whole countries out of using specific software? That doesn't sound right. I know I have seen games locked from regions, but this is software that provides games.
